So I'm out in New York for a week for a brief holiday meeting my parents halfway rather than them coming over to california for a visit.
I've been documenting my adventures thus far on the badger (http://www.rocket-propelled-badger.net) should you be interested.
Spotted this ... not sure if it affects lack of but thought I would post it just in case.
This is looking kind of interesting it's form the people at Uber entertainment (planetary annihilation Monday night combat) it looks like a fun twist on the usual rts with you playing one of the typically bad guys either machine intelligence or mythos Cthulhu esq horrors on a destructible playing field
They want quite a lot of cash so that may stymie them but still they do at least know what they are doing having done planetary annihilation on kickstarter and brought it to market successfully
The Defence Grid 2 Kickstarter has just finished, and apparently I qualified for 3 Steam Keys! I quite clearly only need one.
DG2 is a classic tower defence game, though this one has a couple of muliplayer options. If you like tower defence, you'll like DG2. If you don't like tower defence, this probably won't change your mind.
So, speak up if you would like a key...
For $2 billion, for effectively one game...would you blame him?
Tomorrow evening I fly out to Seattle for Pax Prime and I'm really looking forward to it. Last year byrnie and myself attended PAX prime then flew to newzealand which was astonishingly tiring PAX by itself can be quite overwhelming add 13hr flight and crossing the dateline so you lose a day and it's not fun. We has planned for it and spent our first day in Auckland draining countless cups of coffee and generally looking bewildered at the time shift.
One of the lead devs on the bukkit mod api that we used to use on minecraft tried to shut the project down (and to be fair it's been pretty dead for a while which is why we stopped using it it was really far behind) Turns out he can't as Bukkit was sold to mojang when they hired the original team to write the long long long long long awaited proper mod api for minecraft. They are going to get one of the other devs who now works for them to bridge it till their proper mod api comes up some time around the head death of the universe.
I saw this linked it's a 4 player local dungeon hack and slash where one person plays the hero and everyone else the monsters and traps whoever kills the hero becomes him and then the rest possess monsters and try and kill him again. It looks like a lot of fun and is available on steam and humble.
2 of my goals this year were event-specific targets.
"Most accurate"? I don't know but it looks pretty close to me!
2.02m long. TWO METRES AND 2 CENTIMETRES LONG.
